Description of the Cat S42 Black
Cat S42 Black
The Cat S42 Black is a rugged smartphone that is ideal for people who work construction or those who are just clumsy with their device. It has an IP68 certification which makes it water resistant. It also meets military protection standards for falls.
Besides that, this smartphone has a 5.5-inch screen and a battery capacity of 4200mAh. It has 32GB of storage capacity, which is expandable with a memory card. It has a microUSB charging port and an FM radio receiver.
Water-resistant casing
This Cat smartphone has an IP68 certification. This means that the device is water resistant, so you don't have to worry about a rainstorm or a fall into the water. However, please note that this resistance may decrease over time due to wear and tear.
5.5-inch display
The screen of this rugged phone has a size of 5.5 inches. Compared to other phones, this is on the small side, so the S42 has a manageable size. Besides that, it has a resolution of 1440 x 720 pixels. This is not very high, but it is fine for using everyday apps.
32GB of storage space
On the Cat S42, you will find 32GB of storage capacity. Nowadays, this is not very much. However, it is possible to use a memory card to create more space. This way, you can be sure that you have enough memory for your apps and files.
Can take a beating
This phone meets military standards for drop resistance. It is called MIL-STD-810G. This makes it resistant to falls of up to 1.8 metres. This is ideal if you do extreme sports or have a job where you move around a lot, such as construction.
4200mAh battery capacity
With a battery capacity of 4200mAh, you have enough power to get you through the day, even if you use your phone more often. Charging is done via an outdated microUSB port, however, which makes charging slower than with a USB-C cable.
